SMD Shunts offer 0.2 milliOhm Resistance

The HCS Series from Stackpole now includes an 0.2 milliOhm resistance value in the 3920 and 5930 chip sizes. This extremely low resistance value allows higher power current sensing with greater efficiency. In addition, the all-metal raised element means lower PCB temperatures due to increased convection under the part. The HCS typically runs 15 to 30 degrees C cooler than
